    Abstract: A method, an apparatus, and a computer program product for wireless communication are provided. In one configuration, the apparatus may be a UE. The apparatus may receive a message (e.g., via an ePCFICH) from an eNB and may process an ePDCCH using the message. The apparatus may receive a message via an ePCFICH indicating resources for ePDCCH, the ePDCCH being a localized ePDCCH and/or a distributed ePDCCH and process the ePDCCH using the message. The apparatus may receive an ePCFICH from an eNB, where the ePCFICH is a function of at least a PCI or a virtual cell identifier. The apparatus may process an ePDCCH using a default set of resources when an ePCFICH is not detected. The apparatus may receive an ePCFICH value and may determine either a starting symbol index for an ePDCCH or one or more ePDCCH resource sets based at least on the ePCFICH value.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices are described for dynamic cell mode indication and reporting channel and interference feedback for dormant cells in a carrier aggregation environment. Indicators of cell mode for one or more secondary cells are sent using a transmission mechanism and may configure active or dormant sub-periods within the indicated periods. Indicators of cell mode for a secondary cell may be transmitted on a carrier of the primary cell, or the indicators may be transmitted on carriers of the secondary cell. Dormancy may also be indicated by the presence or absence of a cell mode indicator for predetermined time periods. When CSI measurements occur for a carrier of a dormant cell, the UE may report CSI for the dormant periods, suppress CSI reporting for the dormant periods, adjust a reporting frequency for the dormant periods, or report some types of CSI and not others for the dormant periods.

    Abstract: The described aspects include methods and apparatus providing MTC in a wireless network. In an aspect, a narrow bandwidth within a wide system bandwidth is allocated for communicating data related to MTC. MTC control data generated for communicating over one or more MTC control channels for an MTC UE within the narrow bandwidth is transmitted over the one or more MTC control channels. The one or more MTC channels are multiplexed with one or more legacy channels over the wide system bandwidth. Other aspects are provided for transmission mode and content of the MTC control data or other MTC data.
